Frequently asked questions
Which is better for permanent architectural facade lighting?
The CTC is purpose-built for permanent installations, with 64 LEDs for brighter coverage, dedicated tunable-white channels, and a 5-year warranty. The QUAD offers greater color flexibility but is better suited to event or theatrical applications.
Can I use either fixture outdoors in coastal environments?
Yes—both carry IP66 waterproofing and C5 high corrosion resistance (ISO 12944-6), making them suitable for harsh coastal conditions. The CTC's higher LED count and integrated RDM sensor may be preferred for large-scale permanent deployments.
What is the key optical difference?
The QUAD has 25 RGBW LEDs with 8-degree beams across 1000K–12,500K for full-spectrum color effects. The CTC has 64 variable white LEDs with a tighter 7-degree beam and 2400K–6500K range optimized for warm-to-daylight architectural tuning.
Which requires less control infrastructure?
The CTC offers standalone operation with dedicated warm, medium, and cold channels for manual color mixing without external DMX. The QUAD requires external control to access its full RGBW palette but provides greater creative flexibility.
